When talking about Belgium, we often associate her with beer and delicacies such as waffles and chocolate. Belgium has even earned the name “The Kingdom of Chocolate”. The criteria for obtaining the local certificate for chocolate there are very strict. The consul general of Belgium in Hong Kong, Mr. Lomastro, will accompany Mishy to the International Culinary Institute to learn how to become a chocolatier. During the process, they will be able to get a taste of the original flavour of cocoa beans, regulate the temperature of the chocolate paste firsthand, mould it, experience every step of the journey from beans to bar, and ensure that the process is not sloppy in any way. Having tasted the melting chocolate in her mouth, Mishy has even invited our local traditional sugar-pulling master, Sugarman, to demonstrate his special craftsmanship of over 600 years, including techniques such as pulling, pinching, cutting, and blowing, as if performing magic with sugar.

Currently, there are about 1,350 Belgians residing in Hong Kong. Maxime is a lawyer who has been living in Hong Kong for 14 years, and he has developed his interest in photography. Two and a half years ago, he and his colleague founded the storytelling platform called Hong Kong Shifts Platform. Through photography and interviewing different people in Hong Kong, Maxime has come to know and experience the various aspects of Hong Kong from different perspectives.
